Assertion: Fermentation accounts for only a partial breakdown of glucose whereas in aerobic respiration it is completely degraded to `CO_(2)" and "H_(2)0`
Reason: NADH is oxidised to `NAD^(+)` rather slowly in aerobic respiration, however the reaction is very vigorous in case of fermentation.

Assertion :- Fermentation accounts for only a partial breakdown of glucose. Reason:- In fermentation there is no use of O_(2) so final acceptor is any of the organic intermediate .

Read the following (i-v) and answer the question which follows them (Fermentation is the partial breakdown of glucose. (ii) In aerobic respiration glucose is completely degraded to CO_2 and H_2O . In fermentation there is a net gain of only two molecules of ATP. (iv) Very few ATP are generated under aerobic conditions. (v) NADH is oxidised to NAD^+ is very fast in fermentation while this process is very slow in case of aerobic respiration How many of the above statements are correct?

Assertion: Glycolysis is the first step of respiration in which glucose completely breaks into CO_(2)" and "H_(2)0 . Reason: In this process. there is net gain of twenty four molecules of ATP.
